I think the idea is to take the does out before the bucks wear themselves out trying to breed all of them. I think is would be easier to take a deer in October than in December. Although the snow helps out, the deer are easier to pattern in October. Hunters know that they will get a shot if they hunt a field edge in the late afternoon. Plus, they wouldn't be as spooked and nocturnal as they are later in the year.
